Amalfi's famed historic pasticceria (est.1830) is a must-visit for a breakfast capuccino and sflogliatella or lip-smacking limoncello with delizia al limone dessert. For the full indulgence grab a table outside, but remember it's a lot cheaper and atmospheric consuming al banco (at the bar) watching the patrons and smartly attired baristi.
Amalfi's historic pasticceria is famed for its candied fruits and assortment of tempting Neapolitan pastries. If you have no time to linger and indulge at their piazza tables, order at the bar for a cheaper stand-up coffee and sflogliatella (shell-shaped pastry) fix.
With an outdoor terrace overlooking the Spiaggia Grande, this is an ideal stop for a coffee, a sandwich, or an ice cream. By night, the latest music pumps from the stereo and the clamor of sporting events blares from the large-screen TVs, as movers, groovers, and soccer fans from around the globe sip cocktails after a hard day on the beach.
The exquisite contemporary Neapolitan food has splashes of visual and taste-bud-smacking vibrancy reflected in the sleek but stylish dining room and buzzy covered terrace. This relative newbie is a wee bit pricier than many of the more well-established places, but dishes like crispy pork belly with broccoli rabe and Annurca apple, and egg tagliolini with buffalo butter and black truffle, can make it worth the gamble.
